Re: [Gitstat-devel] New installation and configuration pages

[Lee j. <jun...@gm...>]

Hi,

First of all, Thanks for your contribution.
Actually, I couldn't focus on gitstat these days, sorry for that.

I don't know the way of using dbconfig.php and gitstatconfig.php.
So, I couldn't tell about that well, but if it is needed to separate config.
php, your idea could be good solution.

With some perl code it could be separated easily. But it doesn't care a
whoop.

I'm waiting for new installation page. Someone said that gitstat is too
complex to install and use. If it is done, gitstat could be used by more
people.

Thanks,

Subject: [Gitstat-devel] New installation and configuration pages

Hi,

Soon (I promise) I will commit the new installation page and the changed
admin page.

This makes it possible to have a more-or-less graphical installation
procedure. 
Next to that you should be able to create and change a configuration file
from 
within the admin page.

The admin page will write out a new configuration file in gstat_rw/config/
and 
also create a template perlconfig.pl file. This file can then be copied and
used 
in the gstat_pl part.

This is all nice for people that install from scratch. I'm currently
struggling 
with how to approach this for people who upgrade. Any advise?

The old config.php file will be gone. We can of course ask the upgrader to
copy 
the config.php file to:

1. gstat_rw/config/dbconfig.php
AND
2. gstat_rw/config/gitstatconfig.php

That should do the trick. As long as the account for the webserver has full 
access to those files (and that config directory). The config file will
have to 
much information in them but that's not important anymore.

The step after this while installation/config stuff is to move the
configuration 
piece to the database. That's post v0.5 however.

I don't need to tell you that we need a v0.5 soon but I don't want to rush
this 
and have at least something halfway decent in place.

Cheers,

Paul.
